Revue Faire 34 –An award: What is a most beautiful book?
The reissue of issue 34 of the critical graphic design journal questions the very notion of “beauty” in typography and the challenges surrounding the Most Beautiful Swiss Books award. Tracing the evolution of aesthetics from the Enlightenment to the age of industrial design, it asks what “beauty” means in the art of bookmaking today - since Jan Tschichold’s influential role in shaping the award in 1943.
